Special Guest Paul David Pope to Speak at the Anniversary Gala
Paul David Pope, a third generation Italian American businessman and philanthropist, will bring his remarkable family storya tale of rags-to-riches success, political and boardroom intrigue, and unprecedented publishing infamyas a special guest at this year's NIAF 36th Anniversary Awards Gala in Washington, D.C., on October 29th.
Pope's grandfather, Generoso Pope Sr., left Italy at 15. He worked his way up from the sand pits of Long Island to become a construction magnate and New York City kingmaker. He left his deathbed blessing his youngest son, Gene, to lead the family businessa decision that would rend the family to pieces and ultimately force Gene out on his own. Gene would, in the end, found the National Enquirerand in the process create the modern tabloid media world of today.
Like his father and grandfather before him, Paul Pope has forged his own identity in the world, and much of that identity has to do with his Italian American heritage. As head of Pope Entertainment Group, he was chief sponsor of the New York Historical Society's exhibit, "The Italians of New York: Five Centuries of Struggle and Achievement." He's also received awards from the Consul General of Italy in New York, the Italian Apostolate of the Archdiocese of New York, and the Order Sons of Italy in America. Drawing upon his family's rich heritage and his own unique personal experiences, Pope will be a compelling element in this year's Gala celebration.

Soft Structured Carriers
Ergo Baby Carrier
" My husband and I are anti-"baby bucket." Everyone these days seems to carry their baby around in a plastic bucket with a handle, holding her at shin height and putting her on the floor for convenience. When I got pregnant, we swore we would never be "bucket people." We didn't know it at the time, but we were destined to become Ergo people instead. Need to get your..." --JulieInChicago
Boba Carrier 3G

The Boba 3G just has such a great fit for a toddler. He is well supported, and I can tell that there is room to grow. I..." --TalkToMeNow
ERGO Baby Organic Carrier
"I used the Ergo with my first until he was nearly three. He preferred to be on my front most of the time, right up till the end. We used it for grocery stores, walks, travel (so great for airports!) and some epic hikes. I am now using it for my second baby, age 3 months. She was too big for the newborn insert (birth weight 11 lbs, 4 oz and the insert goes to 12 lbs!), so I had..." --MinneapolisMama
ERGO Sport Carrier
" We use this carrier all the time. We love to hike and walk all over town with this carrier. One thing that I really like is that the ERGO sport carrier keeps me cool on the outings which is no small feat carrying a little love oven everywhere. Definately worth the price if you want a carrier that can take long hikes. Sometimes it seems like the straps slip on long hikes and..." --psmama

Print the Franklin Hanging Decoration Templates on card stock paper or print and affix to cardboard.
Cut out all the pieces. Take one image and glue or tape string onto the back (Don't cut string, as you will need to attach more images to it. See photos for reference). Be sure to leave about 5 inches of string free for hanging. Once string is attached to the back, cover with corresponding image. This will leave with you a doublesided image. Continue attaching the other printables in this fashion.
Once you create three stringed hanging decorations, allow craft to dry before hanging. Attach to chandeliers or ceilings.

A junior copy editor at a prominent New York publishing house must choose between starting a family and chasing her dreams when an unplanned pregnancy threatens to sideline her career ambitions. When Frannie ({$Joanne Kelly}) landed author Michael Tate ({$Colin Ferguson}) as a client, it was a dream come true. But almost as soon as she begins working with her favorite writer, Frannie makes a shocking discovery. She is pregnant, and the father is her new boyfriend Calvin ({$Lucas Bryant}). Though they've hardly been together a couple of months, they both agree to leave the city and start a family. But almost as soon as they buy a house in the suburbs, a stranger appears with promises of sweeping Frannie back to the city to live the life she's always dreamt about. Even as the bright lights of New York beckon her, however, Frannie begins to sense that perhaps a life with Calvin is what she truly needed all along. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

About Us
years ago
David and Jo decided to open a coffee shop where locals and tourists alike could stop in for a nice cup of coffee or bowl of soup. As time went on, the coffee shop idea grew into a restaurant. The Ridge Inn is a family owned and operated establishment that is open for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Our
menu offers a variety of tasty options that will satisfy the pickiest of eaters.
Why are we called The Ridge Inn?
The restaurant was built at the corner of State Route 56 and Thompson Ridge
Road. The 'Ridge' part of the name came from being at the end of Thompson Ridge Road. The 'Inn' part of the name came from wanting to differentiate from the other restaurants in town which include a cafe and a diner.

Prior, who bruised his right shoulder in a collision Friday with Atlanta's Marcus Giles, threw off the flat ground as he normally would two days after a start.
"I feel fine," Prior said.
Cubs trainer Dave Tumbas said Prior's shoulder had improved. Cubs manager Dusty Baker, who will manage the National League team, said he expected to be able to call upon the right-hander if needed in Tuesday's game at U.S. Cellular Field.
"The doctor cleared him to throw [Sunday]," Baker said. "I'm hoping he can [pitch Tuesday]. I'm sure he's hoping he can."
Prior, 22, a first-time All-Star, finished the first half 8-5 with a 3.01 ERA and ranks second in the Major Leagues in strikeouts with 150 behind teammate and fellow All-Star Kerry Wood.
"If he's physically fine, if I did pitch him [in the All-Star Game] it wouldn't be very long," Baker said. "He might be one of the guys I hold back for the end."
Baker has yet to announce his starting rotation after the All-Star break. The Cubs don't resume play until Friday at Florida.
Speaking of Florida, Baker said he's going to be careful with rookie Dontrelle Willis who was named to the National League team to replace Kevin Brown. Willis pitched Sunday for the Marlins.
"Dontrelle is pitching [Sunday]," Baker said. "Do you risk maybe hurting him on Tuesday? People come to see him pitch."
Willis, 9-1, gave up two earned runs over five innings in Florida's win Sunday. He's scheduled to start next Sunday for the Marlins.

Chocolate Bundt Cake
Author Notes: Knowing my love for chocolate, my friend Hilary made me a version of this cake for my birthday one year. The recipe was inspired by something similar she had tasted in a restaurant during college. I've since made adaptations to her recipe and often take this to friends for special occasions. In the past I've added frosting or glazes, but have come to like it best with just powdered sugar on top. - KelseyTheNaptimeChef
Food52 Review: If Betty Crocker had a sophisticated, seductive cousin, this would be her signature cake: it's pure deep, dark, fudgy goodness. Because KelseyTheNaptimeChef's cake uses oil instead of butter, plus a fair amount of coffee, it emerges from the oven incredibly tender and moist. In fact, we noted that it has a texture similar to that of a British steamed pudding. The best part is that you can throw this together in 15 minutes, and it will be out of the oven in another 45 -- making your total time to greatness about an hour. - A&M
Serves bundt cake
- 2 cups sugar
- 1 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 3/4 cups dutch process cocoa powder, plus more for dusting
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 2 teaspoons baking soda
- 1 cup sour milk
- 1 cup freshly brewed strong black coffee
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 2 eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- Preheat oven to 350. Butter a bundt pan and dust the inside with cocoa powder, set aside.
- Sift together sugar, flour, cocoa powder, salt, baking powder and baking soda in a bowl. Set aside.
- In a mixer on low add the milk, coffee, vegetable oil, eggs and vanilla one at a time. mix until everything is incorporated. Then, with the mixer still on low speed, slowly add in the dry ingredients. Once all of the flour mixture is added, mix the batter for a full four minutes on medium speed.
- Then, pour the batter into the bundt pan and bake for 45 minutes, or until a cake tester comes out clean. Allow to cool to room temperature on a wire rack. Then, dust with powdered sugar and serve.

@Kathy Cooks. I'm sorry, my husband is on hospice and I didn't have time to read the previous 300 comments. But I want to tell you that I have absolutely no problem with someone downloading a good cake recipe. I'm just surprised that I, who rarely bakes cakes, knew what it was right away, and Kelsey and Food 52 didn't. Anything is possible I suppose, but I still feel that such a decades-old recipe should not be given first prize for best chocolate cake only because it was downloaded. BTW, I did not enter this or any other contest, so this is not sour grapes. I just don't think it's fair. At least the other sites explain how to sour milk, and the different pan sizes one can use.

@BakingTara: If you had read the previous reviews you would have seen that there was no intention to defraud. I for one am happy that Kelsey downloaded this cake as it has given me, as well as my guests, many hours of pleasure.
about 1 month ago BakingTara
Can't believe this was awarded first prize for chocolate cake -- not because it is not a good cake, but this is a direct word for word copy of an established cake, known as a Black Magic Cake. I googled Black Magic Cake in quotes and got 134,000 responses. It is on Allrecipes, on the Hershey's website, etc. This cake has been around for decades. This direct copy should not be award a prize for best chocolate cake. At least, that's how I feel.

Yummmm...I have made this cake twice now for 2 different parties and each time a hit! So moist which allowed for me to cut slices for a platter and no worry of it drying out. For the 2nd time, I did use a strong espresso which made it is tad richer and I love an espresso -chocolate mix. I am thinking the the 3rd time I will include a bowl of fresh whipped creme fraiche on the side and surround the cake with fresh strawberries as we are getting to the season. This is a keeper!

Has anyone tried making this into cake rounds? I'm curious to find out how many rounds and what size this batch would yield.

This was simply divine on its own, definitely a keeper! Even the kids didn't mind it without any frosting. I've made this several times. Thank you for sharing.

Holy crap was this cake good! This recipe made me look like a superstar on Valentine's Day. I made it exactly as the recipe describes and served it with marshmallow whipped cream, raspberries and blackberries and decorated it with a few flowers (carnations). I wish I could post a picture of it that I took! It had a great depth of chocolate flavor without being too sweet (the marshmallow whipped cream added additional sweetness if one wanted it). And, as other's have said, it's a really light cake on the palate. Really, really good - thank you so much for this recipe.
2 months ago Molly McClellan
Just made the cake for our Valentine's Day dinner...it looks wonderful and I'm sure it will taste even better. Since I seem to have a cream cheese surplus, I plan to make a cream cheese glaze for it. On another note, after cruising through all of the comments posted about this recipe from day one...Kelsey, I cannot believe the amount of guff you have had to endure about this recipe. Thank you for sharing it.

I made this cake the day before serving it. It was so moist that it absorbed all the powdered sugar I dusted it with. I dusted it again right before my guests arrived and it soaked up the sugar a second time. So I had to dust it a third time right before serving. It was a big hit and it kept very well.

Recipe known in the restaurant world as "Black Magic" cake. It's great because it is hard to mess up. BTW, you can use un-soured milk with same results.

Thanks for the milk tip... I was curious about that :)

What a delicious and intensely chocolate cake! Super moist and not at all heavy/dense in texture which is exactly what I was after. I made this in smaller mini springform tins and they took about 30-35 mins to cook (just in case that's useful for anyone).

Do you cool the coffee to room temperature first or add it piping hot straight from the coffee maker (in my case espresso maker)?

In future, if you click on Questions, instead of Comments, your question will go straight to the hotline and get more eyeballs. But for cakes like this hot liquid is fine, it even help dissolve the ccooa.

This cake is excellent. Made it with regular cocoa powder and it was a hit. Great that it doesn't require any special ingredients.
4 months ago Holly
Is there a way to substitute regular cocoa powder for the dutch process? I am 0 for 4 at all of the grocery stores I've tried and I don't have time to make it out to a nice spice market. Can I adjust the amount of baking soda and baking powder to account for the different acidity levels?
3 months ago Lisa
My supermarket didn't have any Dutch Process Cocoa Powder. I used Hershey's Dark Cocoa Powder which is a combination of dark and dutch cocoa powders and it turned out absolutely delicious.

So what are the ten greatest Irish ballads?We could sit here and argue for months, and I would happily do but here is my selection.
All these songs have touched my heart at one time or another. I hope they touch yours too.
1. Song for Ireland
Written by Scottish folk singer Phil Colclough in 1982 -- beautifully rendered by Mary Black, it has become a classic.
2. Scorn Not His Simplicty
Phil Coulter's beautiful paean to his Down Syndrome son. Wonderfully rendered by Luke Kelly of the Dubliners.
3. The Time Has Come
This heartbreaking 1981 hunger strike song commemorated the death of Patsy O'Hara. Christy Moore co-wrote with Donal Lunny and does a magnificent version.
4. Arthur MacBride
An anti-British army recruiting song from the 1840s, beautifully rendered by Paul Brady.
5. I Dreamt I Dwelt
Written by Irish composer Michael Balfe from his opera "Bohemian girl. " A heartrending, and lonely song. Enya does a stellar version of it.
6. The Fields of Athenry
Written by Pete St. John, it has become the unofficial Irish national anthem thanks to Celtic Football club and the Irish soccer team. A wonderful haunting ballad of the Irish famine. Paddy Reilly does a magnificent version
7. The Bold Fenian Men' (Down by the Glenside)
This ballad of the 19th century commemorates the Fenian uprising. Arcady featuring Frances Black does a hanting version.
8. Grace
This song is about Grace Gifford who married her husband hours before he was executed for his part in the 1916 Rising. Written by Frank O'Meara in 1985. The Dubliners, featuring Jim McCann, do a powerful version.

NFL Start 'Em, Sit 'Em: Week 6
Story Highlights
The Cowboys have ranked among the top-five against quarterbacks and receivers
Brent Celek may have a big day versus a Lions D that has been soft on tight ends
Ahmad Bradshaw and other Giants are smart sits against a stingy 49ers defense
This is a week of the irresistible forces vs. the immovable objects. The top two offenses (New England and the N.Y. Giants) face the top two defenses (Seattle and San Francisco).
The Giants offense has been romping for fantasy owners, even with spare parts at times, and next faces arguably the best defense in the NFL, even if the up-tempo Tom Brady spread offense is facing the defense that is statistically No. 1. The former portends Week 5 surprise star Ahmad Bradshaw may prove to be Week 6's bust against the toughest run defense in the NFL.
Fantasy's other toughest opponents vs. running backs are threatening to cut into the production of some of the steadiest running backs: Alfred Morris (vs. MIN), Stevan Ridley (at SEA), LeSean McCoy (vs. DET), Fred Jackson and C.J. Spiller (at ARI), Steven Jackson (at MIA), Marshawn Lynch (vs. NE), Adrian Peterson (vs. WAS) and Jamaal Charles (at TB).
The good news, perhaps, is you can at least still start those guys even in unfavorable matchups. Then, of course, there's Chris Johnson, the mercurial fantasy pariah stuck on a Tennessee roller-coaster ride, who should sit vs. the Steelers' run defense, which is still rugged.
The question marks don't end there. Some more of the marquee names are on bye as Carolina, Chicago, Jacksonville and New Orleans get the week off. The likes of Drew Brees, Cam Newton, Maurice Jones-Drew, Jimmy Graham, Marques Colston, Brandon Marshall, Matt Forte, Garrett Hartley, Robbie Gould and the Bears defense/special teams are unavailable to you.
We'll help you plug those gaps and others in SI.com's weekly Start 'em, Sit 'em:
Steelers -- Ben Roethlisberger, Rashard Mendenhall, Mike Wallace, Antonio Brown, Heath Miller, Shaun Suisham, Steelers D/ST: This is a dream matchup to start all of your primary Steelers. The Titans are favorable across the board in fantasy: vs. quarterbacks (sixth), running backs (seventh), wide receivers (16th), tight ends (first), kickers (second) and D/STs (sixth). Mendenhall was solid in his return against a much tougher defense, so consider him a potential top-five running back going forward. Miller was hot going into the bye and gets a great matchup here. Even Isaac Redman might be a flex option, as this game may become a blowout and allow some grind-it-out garbage time.
Titans -- Jared Cook: The Steelers are a tough defense, but also a tough team that figures to get ahead and lead to some garbage time. Cook picked up five catches for 37 yards and a touchdown in the fourth quarter last week, so expect him to be a frequent target again. If you need a receiver, Kenny Britt is healthy, Kendall Wright was frequently targeted last week and Nate Washington was huge with Matt Hasselbeck a year ago. None of the three are great options, but they are potentially useful as stopgaps.
Steelers -- Jonathan Dwyer, Emmanuel Sanders, Jerricho Cotchery: Sanders and Cotchery might find the end zone as the Steelers spread the ball around, so consider them decent desperation options if injury and bye weeks really have you scrapping for dregs.
Titans -- Matt Hasselbeck, Chris Johnson, Rob Bironas, Titans D/ST: Johnson is probably the only one of these owned, but he is the one that should be sat. His surprise performance against the Texans' run defense shouldn't be used as a guide to start him against the Steelers, who can still beat up backs. This is a short week, which always can affect backs and their amount of usage, and you likely are already well-equipped to do without Johnson in your lineups.
Raiders -- Darren McFadden, Sebastian Janikowski: The Falcons have a better run defense than their current standing as the 12th-worst in fantasy vs. running backs, but McFadden should prove productive in this matchup, if not on the ground, then through the air. This looks like a week of a lot of garbage time for the Raiders as the Falcons tend to score at will, so consider Carson Palmer and his primary target Denarius Moore potential sleepers. Janikowski has been limited with a groin issue, but the bye week should have healed that. Consider him someone to pick back up and set-and-forget in lineups the rest of the way.
Falcons -- Matt Ryan, Michael Turner, Julio Jones, Roddy White, Tony Gonzalez, Matt Bryant: There are good signs for all of the star Falcons here, especially Turner, who faces a Raiders defense that has been bottom-five against running backs in fantasy to date. That fact might even make seldom-used backup Jacquizz Rodgers a potential flex in deeper formats, if he mops up.
Raiders -- Darrius Heyward-Bey, Rod Streater, Derek Hagan, Brandon Myers: Palmer's secondary targets are not necessarily worth owning yet, save for DHB, who is coming off a concussion. DHB is practicing now, but he needs to prove healthy and productive before he is to be trusted in fantasy lineups.
Falcons -- Falcons D/ST: Many are going to jump on this unit against a sub-standard Raiders team, but it might come as a surprise the Raiders have averaged the fewest fantasy points against because they have committed just three turnovers and allowed just five sacks. Only the Texans are stingier with turnovers through four games.
Cowboys -- DeMarco Murray, Miles Austin, Dez Bryant, Jason Witten: The Cowboys have been a mess, but this group looks pretty safe to start coming out of the bye. Murray is especially interesting against a Ravens run defense that has somewhat surprisingly been in the bottom half of fantasy against running backs.
Ravens -- Ray Rice, Justin Tucker, Ravens D/ST: It might be lost in their 1-3 start, but the Cowboys are a tough matchup in fantasy against the pass. They are No. 2 and No. 3 vs. quarterbacks and receivers. You shouldn't ever sit Rice, Tucker or the Ravens D/ST, though.
Cowboys -- Tony Romo, Kevin Ogletree, Dan Bailey, Cowboys D/ST: These guys have really slipped, and since fantasy owners managed without them a week ago, the advice here is leave them out of lineups for at least one more week.
Ravens -- Joe Flacco, Torrey Smith, Anquan Boldin, Dennis Pitta, Ed Dickson: Flacco, Smith and Boldin are useful as needed, but owners might be better off with other options against a Cowboys defense that can slow the passing game with their pressing corners.
Bengals -- BenJarvus Green-Ellis, A.J. Green, Jermaine Gresham, Mike Nugent, Bengals D/ST: BGE is coming off a disastrous outing, but Bernard Scott (knee) is now out for the year and the Browns allowed the Giants to run wild on the ground a week ago. It should be a better week for BGE, while Gresham should be able to continue his recent resurgence. Nugent is a nice option at kicker in most weeks, while the Browns are in the bottom half of fantasy against opposing D/STs.
Browns -- Trent Richardson: The Bengals have been the eighth-most forgiving team in fantasy vs. running backs, so Richardson should be able to continue his rushing-touchdown string, while being a big factor in the passing game as well.
Bengals -- Andy Dalton, Armon Binns, Andrew Hawkins: The Browns are getting their elite cornerback Joe Haden back, so expect the defense to be much tougher all around against the pass this week. That makes Dalton and his secondary targets question marks this week.
Browns -- Brandon Weeden, Greg Little, Josh Gordon, Mohamed Massaquoi, Travis Benjamin, Jordan Norwood, Ben Watson, Phil Dawson, Browns D/ST: Save for Richardson, the rest of the Browns' fantasy options aren't worth owning right now, especially against a defense that should improve upon its slow start.
Rams -- Steven Jackson: This poor running back has run a gauntlet of elite run defenses this season. This week quietly presents one of the toughest. The saving grace here, though, is that Jackson is the best thing the Rams offense has going for it. He will get his touches and yards even against a Dolphins defense that is No. 1 in the NFL against the run.
Dolphins -- Reggie Bush, Dolphins D/ST: Bush remains a solid option in all leagues, even if he loses goal-line touches to Daniel Thomas and isn't quite 100 percent. The Dolphins defense has been surprising, especially at home, and faces a Rams team that has been the eighth-worst in fantasy against D/STs.
Rams -- Sam Bradford, Brandon Gibson, Chris Givens, Steve Smith, Brian Quick, Austin Pettis, Lance Kendricks, Greg Zuerlein, Rams D/ST: The loss of Danny Amedola for the season makes a further mess of a bad situation with the Rams. One of these receivers need to step forward, but until one does, you should avoid all of these options in fantasy.
Dolphins -- Ryan Tannehill, Daniel Thomas, Brian Hartline, Davone Bess, Anthony Fasano, Dan Carpenter: Tannehill and the Dolphins have shown flashes, but they are facing a Rams team that has been equally surprising in the early season. Thomas might find the end zone and Hartline might find some targets, but you're better off looking elsewhere for stopgaps this week.
Colts -- Andrew Luck, Reggie Wayne, Adam Vinatieri: Luck has earned starting status by handling a top contender in the Packers at home. He has been great, mostly because Wayne has never looked better, despite his advanced age. Vinatieri is coming back to prominence in fantasy, too, because Luck has been so capable.
Jets -- Shonn Greene: Greene and the Jets have been an unmitigated disaster, but the run defenses of the Steelers, Dolphins, 49ers and Texans will do that to the best the NFL. This week Greene could rebound gloriously for fantasy owners against a Colts defense that is ninth-worst in fantasy vs. running backs. Greene is headed for 125 yards and two scores. You heard it here first.
Colts -- Vick Ballard, Delone Carter, Donald Brown, Donnie Avery, T.Y. Hilton, LaVon Brazill, Coby Fleener, Dwayne Allen, Colts D/ST: Ballard takes over as a starter with Brown needing a knee 'scope this week, but the Jets defense is better than it has shown against some of the elite running games in the NFL. Rest assured, this is not a good Colts running game it will be facing. The receivers are a risk, too, against a secondary that kept the Texans reeling a bit.
Jets -- Mark Sanchez, Stephen Hill, Jeremy Kerley, Chaz Schilens, Dustin Keller, Nick Folk, Jets D/ST: All of these guys have been worthless of late, so don't use them as much as track them. Someone is going to take advantage of a favorable matchup here. The bet is Sanchez, Keller, Folk and the defense surprise, so consider them out of desperation if byes and injuries have you scraping the bottom of the barrel.

Laughing is good for learning.
That's the theory of Doni Tamblyn and Sharyn Weiss, authors of The Big Book of Humorous Training Games (McGraw Hill, 2000).
Try the 10-minute "Brain Fry," designed to warm up a group for brainstorming:
Create teams of four. Tell each team to pick the first "target person." Then ask them to quickly choose who will go second, third, and fourth.
The first target person faces the rest of the team, lined up like a firing line. At your signal, the firing line shouts out single random words to the target in rapid succession. The target must immediately respond with another word (any word). Whenever a target says "um," he must declare, "I'm fried!" and take a place in the firing line.
Continue the game until everyone has had at least one turn as the target.
If participants feel a bit crazier than they did 10 minutes before, their brains are ready for some creative thinking.
Brain Fry is one of 50 games in this 279-page book, organized into 10 topic chapters. For example, there are games to help employees deal with difficult people, games to reduce workplace negativity, and games to help build creative teams. The book is especially user friendly. For each game, the authors include the point of the game, the time needed, materials needed, a funny way for the trainer to introduce the game, the rules of the game, and questions to ask in a debriefing session.

Spanish art director and photographer Dani Garcia Sarabia spends his time pursuing not wildlife, as one would generally expect from a hunter, but rather, powerful winged airplanes in the sky.

Insider Tips
Located only 90 minutes from Merida. The Kukulcan pyramid is the most famous building in this UNESCO archaeological site, followed by the ball court and the Mayan observatory. Every 21st March and 21st September during the Spring and Fall equinoxes, crowds appear to watch an astronomical phenomenon: at the rising and setting of the sun, the corner of the pyramid casts a shadow in the shape of a plumed serpent onto the north staircase. As the sun moves, the serpent slithers down the northern side of the pyramid.
Once a Spanish general's stately mansion, this Merida luxury hotel blends colonial elegance with every modern convenience. Relax on our outdoor terrace and enjoy the finest tequila selection in the city. Explore historic Yucatán and the tree-lined splendour of Palacado Monteo, once Mexico's wealthiest district. This Merida luxury hotel is also well placed to explore the area's fascinating heritage, including Izamal and the ancient Mayan ruins, one of the seven wonders of the world.

Rated 3.6 out of 5 by 14 reviewers.
Rated 4.0 out of 5.0 by TravelerTTD 2 night stay Merida Nice city-center hotel Chilli's and Starbucks and walmart in walking distance Parking is free(garage under hotel) On arrival no room upgrade and no recognition ambassadors member. Noisy during our nights in hotel. 23 February 2014
Rated 2.0 out of 5.0 by IHG ex-pat Worst hotel I have ever stayed in. Our departing flight was rescheduled for a day later than planned due to mechanical problems with the plane. I informed the hotel we would be getting in a day later, Their response to that was no problem, don't worry. This 14 night trip was paid for in advance, however now we were going to be there only13 nights. I inquired about staying an extra night to get what I had paid for and I was told, after a week and a half of haggling, that I would have to pay for the additional night. This made no sense to me. I also did not receive a refund for this night by the hotel or the travel agency. The food in the restaurant was only passable. I ordered a pizza for lunch one day and I received a frozen one similar to what you would get from the frozen foods section of your supermarket, It was not even a very good one at that, and it was barely cooked. The hotel was very noisy, therefor difficult to get to sleep and stay asleep. Doors to the rooms were slamming,(and I mean SLAMMING) all night long or someone was talking loudly going down the hall. The safe in our room was broken so I reported it. Someone came to look at it but that was as far as it went. I was quite disappointed. I had to carry all of my money with me, and a lap top computer whenever I left the hotel. 10 February 2014

Letter to 'obese children' from alleged Fargo woman goes viralFargo, ND (WDAY TV) - It's gone viral: a letter allegedly written by a Fargo woman, claiming she'll be handing out letters to obese children who trick-or-treat in her neighborhood on Halloween.
By: Drew Trafton, WDAY
Fargo, ND (WDAY TV) - It's gone viral: a letter allegedly written by a Fargo woman, claiming she'll be handing out letters to obese children who trick-or-treat in her neighborhood on Halloween.
The letter asks parents to ration candy and enforce healthy eating habits.
"A letter to give to their parents instead of any Halloween candy."
On Wednesday, national media outlets could not get enough of the letter from a Fargo resident using trick-or-treating to wage a personal war against obesity.
"They say, to the parents, '...your child is, in my opinion, moderately obese.'"
But there's a fundamental question that's been left unanswered: who wrote it?
The letter first came to the public's attention through the Y-94 morning show in Fargo.
The hosts claim a woman named Cheryl, who later allegedly called in to the program, wrote the letter.
Cheryl: "I think it's just really irresponsible of parents to just send them out looking for free candy because all of the other kids are doing it."
Compelling stuff, right?
We contacted Y-94 to see if we'd be able to get Cheryl's contact information to see if she'd be willing to talk with us.
"You know, I've kind of been forwarding everything to the morning show as they've had communication with her."
As directed, we sent an email to one of the hosts of that morning show.
After a brief exchange, we were told the show was asked to no longer forward Cheryl's information.
Further questions about who requested the information freeze went unanswered.
So, what? You're asking-- why the skepticism in the first place?
It turns out this isn't the first time Y-94 has had the authenticity of a viral event be called into question.
Y-94 clip: "Why are we encouraging deer to cross at the interstate. I don't get it. It's such a high traffic area."
A clip from a woman calling into the station confused about deer crossings has also grabbed national spotlight.
Y-94 clip: "To lobby deer crossings to be in areas where these deer are so likely to be struck by oncoming traffic."
Dawn the deer lady has never surfaced, either.
WDAY 970 AM radio host Jay Thomas says it's not unheard of for radio shows to generate interest by faking events.
Thomas: "That's what makes good morning radio. And kudos to a radio station that can pull if off. But again, that's the beauty of radio. That's what gets people to listen. You don't know if it's real, you don't know if it's fake. "
And regardless of the letter being genuine... the conversation it's sparked is 100 percent real.
Sarah Lundstrom; "It's nobody's business except the parents if their child is obese and shouldn't be consuming chocolate or candy."
Daniel Green: "It's up to the parents how they raise their kids. And having other parents try to raise their kids by giving them these letters is just awful. If it's real, of course."
And if it's fake? Let's face it-- it wouldn't be the first time the nation was fooled by a Halloween time broadcast.
War of the Worlds: "The bells you hear are ringing to warn the people to evacuate the city as Martians approach."
Today marks the 75th anniversary of the Orson Welles rendition of 'War of the Worlds.'
If your child does come home with a letter concerning obesity in their trick-or-treat bags, we'd like to hear from you.

Somerset patients urged to self-care by the NHS
9:00pm Monday 30th December 2013 in News
PATIENTS in the South-West are being urged to ease pressure on the NHS by self-caring this winter as part of a campaign by the British Medical Association.
A new poster aimed at helping patients get the help they need this winter has been launched to encourage patients to self-care, for example, when suffering from colds or sore throat, rather than visiting their local GP or A&E.
